| hairu | bkeys: and just get a completely new SoM board altogether next upgrade? | 00:18 |
| bkeys | Well I daily drive my Reform, so I plan on using only the rk3588 when I get it | 00:18 |
| hairu | i suppose rpi cm5 is fewer cores and less ram... i did mean it when i said i'm pretty poor though ;) | 00:18 |
| josch | the a311d classic reform is my only computer and i don't have complaints | 00:18 |
| hairu | bkeys: i would cross-compile gentoo if i got one, and i can easily watch netflix on my 4GB pi4b, so idk | 00:19 |
| hairu | hmmmm | 00:20 |
| hairu | josch: do you know if the adaptor board for compute module form factor will support cm5? | 00:20 |
| josch | hairu: i do not own any raspberry pi, no idea | 00:21 |
| hairu | ok | 00:21 |
| hairu | well even bananapi | 00:21 |
| hairu | seems like they follow the same standard, and i am hoping it'll stay the same for upgrade purposes | 00:22 |
| hairu | i guess i should wait for minute to not be sleeping xD | 00:24 |
| josch | hairu: last mention i can find of the cm5 in the irc logs: https://mntre.com/reform-irc-logs/2024-11-12.log.html#t16:26:08 | 00:26 |

| hairu | whether rcm4 carrier board can be used | 00:43 |
| josch | hairu: yes, somebody needs to do it and as far as i know, nobody has done it yet | 00:44 |

| minute | what's the standard way to add kernel parameters without serial etc? editing /etc/default/flash-kernel ? | 18:52 |
| vagrantc | if you're using flash-kernel ... | 18:52 |
| vagrantc | alternately /etc/flash-kernel/*.d possibly | 18:52 |
| minute | ah yes, i just tried it and it does work | 18:53 |
| vagrantc | if you're using u-boot-menu, then you use u-boot-menu mechanisms | 18:53 |
| vagrantc | and if you'r;e using grub ... | 18:53 |
| vagrantc | ACTION so helpful | 18:54 |
| vagrantc | :) | 18:54 |
| josch | :D | 18:54 |
| minute | :D | 18:54 |
| josch | minute: I left a comment in /boot/boot.scr which answers your question | 18:54 |
| josch | "Default bootargs for Linux are set here and can be overwritten using LINUX_KERNEL_CMDLINE in /etc/default/flash-kernel or by setting ${bootargs} in u-boot itself via the setenv command." | 18:55 |
| josch | and a few lines below that: | 18:55 |
| josch | "Board-specific bootargs cannot be overwritten by above methods. If you really need to overwrite below lines, create /etc/flash-kernel/ubootenv.d/00reform2_ubootenv and fill it with what you would like to replace the contents of this file with." | 18:55 |
| minute | josch: thx! | 18:57 |
| vagrantc | on the imx8mq mnt reform(2?) ... was u-boot generally shipped on the eMMC of just on the SD card? | 18:57 |
| vagrantc | someone asked how to test my work on guix and i am so on he rk3588 now i cannnot remember :) | 18:58 |
| vagrantc | on the eMMC or just on the SD card? | 18:58 |
| vagrantc | i seem to recall getting to the point on the imx8mq where my /boot was on SD card, but my rootfs was on NVMe | 18:59 |
| vagrantc | but forget where u-boot lived | 18:59 |
| josch | vagrantc: for imx8mq it's the DIP switch that selects where it reads u-boot from: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-handbook/-/issues/2 | 19:00 |

| BoostisBetter | minute: would it be possible to get a firmware update that remembers the color of the RGB lighting, such that it isn't always purple when booting? | 22:27 |
| minute | yeah the reform kbd4 fw already has this (it remembers the color you set) so this code has to be ported | 22:32 |
| minute | but first i have to fix a gazillion other more pressing things | 22:32 |
| BoostisBetter | minute: ok, that is good to hear. Totally understand that there is a lot on your plate right now! | 22:33 |
| minute | josch: do you wanna hear a reform-tools story? | 22:34 |
| josch | minute: i cannot promise to read it right now though :) | 22:34 |
| josch | but yes of course :D | 22:35 |
| minute | josch: haha no worries. just before i forget | 22:35 |
| minute | josch: i tested the Desktop Reform (rk3588) today and i had a fresh system on sd card. i put a 4TB ssd in the slot. after going into sway i launched reform-setup-encrypted-disk, and it was great! then it asked me something like, booting via emmc is the default, you wanna do that? and i was like, that's _exactly_ what i want. unfortunately then it failed because the emmc was not partitioned yet | 22:42 |
| minute | josch: then i thought ok i'll run reform-emmc-bootstrap. and it did the right things! and everything worked beautifully | 22:42 |
| minute | josch: sooo the only little hitch was that, instead of reform-setup-encrypted-disk just aborting/exiting, it could ask me if i wanna do tabula rasa on that emmc and run reform-emmc-bootstrap for me | 22:43 |
| minute | josch: or, it currently prints out a bunch of commands that i should maybe run, but reform-emmc-bootstrap would have been the best suggestion i think | 22:44 |
| - jacobk_ (QUIT: Ping timeout: 248 seconds) (~quassel@47-186-65-73.dlls.tx.frontiernet.net) | 22:45 | |
| minute | hmm hmm i wonder if i should attempt to unify pocket + big keyboard fw | 22:51 |
| josch | minute: was it the thing that happened after the question "Your /boot partition will be on eMMC by default. Do you want it on the SD-Card instead?" | 23:27 |
| minute | josch: yes | 23:27 |
| minute | josch: i have to say that in practice this issue will rarely happen. because we usually make sure that the emmc is partitioned | 23:28 |
| josch | right, but users might do funny things with their emmc, so better add something | 23:29 |
| josch | i think this should go into reform-boot-config because that's the component that tries to mount the first partition on emmc | 23:29 |
| josch | and then other scripts using reform-boot-config would automatically benefit as well | 23:30 |
| minute | josch: oh yeah, sounds good | 23:37 |
